Senior ( iaAA JJidto The next year was one of many changes. Siam of our classmates were called upon to leave us to serve our nation in her armed forces; others served in the factories and shops doing the jobs they had prepared for in the machine and wood shops of our school. We were beginning to grow up. This year, under the leadership of Martin Manich, president: George Bunchck. vice president; Irene Sallay, secretary: and Bob Brown, treasurer, our class sponsored the all important and long-awaited Junior-Senior Prom and we all looked forward eagerly to May 18. 1944. We chose “Arabian Nights” as our theme and the decorations were carried out accordingly. Of course, it was a big success! It had to be! This was the year we l ccame eligible to be chosen for ' '' •' ' J ' the National Honor Society. We became interested in the work of the “Tattler” and “Reflector” staffs and began participating in their work. And will we ever forget those days of merican history when we had to memorize the past presidents of the V. S ! In order to Ik prepared to carry on our activities in our senior year from the very first, we elected bur senior class officers as follows: Bob Brown, president; William Levin, vice president; David Ilajdmh. secretary; and George Salig.i, trcaMirei. ’ Naturally, the most important date in our high school career was the dav we entered as seniors—September 4. 1945. Ibis last year was one of great activity. It was a year of happiness mixed with a tinge of sorrow brought on by the many reminders that this'would be our last ’• %• ■ , r ip- -. year together. More and more of our boys wore leaving to serve in the amicef forces and have since served their country in many places throughout the world. Receipt of our class rings (finally) and of our class pictures only added to the finality . . . On the other haml. we were THE seniors—and big shots around school—and didn't we show it? But that didn't make us 1’ .4 i y ■ 't i sad—not at all! We edited the “Reflector” and the “Tattler and beaded various other organi a tions and clubs. To make the year even more joyful, our basketball and football teams built up great records. Parties, initiations. Bums' Day. the Prom, the Junior Senior picnic , and finally Class Night and Commencement served to complete our final and happiest ear in our dear old Alma Mater. We entered Whiting High School a carefree but enthusiastic group; we shall leave our school informed adults, conscious of the responsibilities facing us as tomorrow's leaders.
